The bug is _not_ in the parts of the system being tested, but is in this test scaffolding. If that is the case, then it should not be enabled unconditionally. When somebody wants to see if remote-testgit was broken again (perhaps after observing occassional hangs), the environment should be set when running the test, but not in t5800. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
